The Amway business opportunity is a low-cost, low-risk path for entrepreneurs to achieve their ideal work/life balance with rewards and recognition for their efforts.

Today, millions of people around the world have their own Amway business. Regardless of their professional background, life experience, or education level, it works for them. The business requires hard work and dedication, and while it may not be right for everyone, it has led to success for many individuals.

Amway Business Owners (ABOs) service their existing customers and present to new customers, and some help others to build their own businesses. Income varies too, because compensation and bonuses are

based on product sales. Many ABOs work to supplement wages earned from activities not related to Amway, while others make it their primary source of income.

EVERYBODY HAS A UNIQUE STORY TO TELL. MOST ABOS EARN A LITTLE EXTRA INCOME TO HELP THEIR FAMILIES. MANY USE IT FOR THEIR CHILDRENS EDUCATION OR TO FIND OTHER WAYS TO LEAVE THE NEXT GENERATION BETTER OFF THAN THEIR OWN.

Amway uses the best of nature, science and research to develop and manufacture products to the highest quality standards. Amway scientists, engineers and technical professionals around the world respond to market demands, create new markets and devise products that closely fit an infinite variety of customer needs and desires. Its enough to put Amway at number 17 on The Patent Boards Consumer Products industry scorecard in August 2014. The ranking seeks to measure the overall strength of a companys patent portfolio.

Amway R&D isnt only conducted inside the walls of its own laboratories. In fact, Amway scientists who work in Open Innovation serve as research scouts who canvas the globe searching for discoveries made by other scientists that can be incorporated into new Amway products. As a result of the scouts work, numerous partnerships have been formed with outside scientists and their technologies have been incorporated into 17 high-impact products released in a total of 55 markets with an impact of $700 million in new product sales.

Results of long-term global research projects also will help direct Amway scientists as they work to discover beneficial breakthroughs. Conducted by the Stanford University Prevention Research Center and funded by an unrestricted gift from the Amway Nutrilite Health Institute Wellness

Fund, WELL aims to help identify lifestyle and environmental factors that may help people maintain their health and wellness as they age. A study commissioned by the Nutrilite Health Institute of Amway found the majority of adults worldwide would have to at least double their current consumption of fruits and vegetables to meet the World Health Organizations minimum recommendation of five servings (400 grams) per day.
